Tottenham youngster Min-Hyeok Yang is in talks to join QPR on loan until the end of the season.

The 18-year-old winger was signed from Gangwon FC in South Korea in the summer transfer window, however only linked up with the north London side this month.

However, the highly-rated teenager is yet to make an appearance for Ange Postecoglou's side - who have been struggling to find form amid an injury crisis.

Despite their growing list on unavailable players, Mail Sport understands that Spurs are willing to let the Yang leave on loan - with talks behind held with QPR.

The west London side were among three clubs to have asked about Yang's availability.

During Gangwon's season last year, Yang scored 12 goals and managed six assists to help them end the season as K-League runners-up.

He could prove a useful asset to QPR, should he join, who have enjoyed a fine run of form in recent weeks which has taken them just outside of the play-off spots.

Prior to their recent defeat by Sheffield Wednesday, the R's went on a four-game winning streak in the Championship to help recover from a poor start to the season.

The west London side currently sit 13th in the league table but are just six points behind sixth-placed Middlesbrough.

QPR boss Marti Cifuentes will be hopeful that Yang can have a similar impact at the club to former Tottenham academy star Kieran Morgan.

Morgan, 18, moved to W12 in summer - following nearly 10 years in north London - and has shone since being given a first-team opportunity by Cifuentes.

His one goal and one assist hardly paint an accurate picture of how influential the midfielder has been throughout QPR's campaign thus far.

Spurs, meanwhile, remain hopeful of bringing in a new face before the end of the transfer window - with attackers the focus for Postecoglou.

Mail Sport previously reported that the club - along with a number of European sides - have taken an interest in Brighton striker Evan Ferguson amid their injury crisis.

Spurs are also among a number of clubs interested in Bayern Munich's Mathys Tel.

Stars such as Dominic Solanke, Guglielmo Vicario, Destiny Udogie and Micky van de Ven have all been sidelined in recent weeks and months.
